Overview: The material we useOur
products are made of various materials, here we present the fabrics and
materials we use, describe their advantages and disadvantages and their
uses.

Traffic light system:For
a quick overview, we have created a traffic light system, for
each type of tissue which allows a rapid assessment. The ratings are
divided into three levels: green (high /good), orange (average)
and red (poor/low/bad). The markings are read as follows:

Green: Who values this attribut, will be pleased

Orange:
It fulfills exactly the purpose that it should have. There are also
materials which serve this purpose better, but also some who serve
far worse

Red: If you have an increased focus on
this this attributes value for the intended use, you should refrain
from using (! Flammability exception here is of course an advantage if
the value is bad!)

BreathabilityHow well transports the cloth the body moisture to the outside?

Puncture protectionHow well do the fabric protects against penetration, such as eg branches, thorns, insect bites, etc.?

ElasticityHow good / far stretches the fabric without tear under stress without deforming or permanent?

WeightHow heavy / light is the fabric?

IsolationHow gut does it trap heat and isolates from the cold?

Tensile strengthHow the fabric tolerates mechanical stress? Is it more vulnerable or rugged?

WindproofHow well do the fabric protects against wind and the resulting hypothermia (so-called "Wind Chill Factor")

FlammabilityHow well the fabric is protected from ignition, how it reacts to direct contact with sparks or burning material / open flame?

WaterproofnessHow good does the fabric protect from moisture / water?

Ripstop (65/35 Cotton / Nylon)Ripstop
cotton / nylon blend is characterized by soft feel, robust
construction, relatively good breathability and quick drying out. It
has, for the military, replaced the traditional uniform fabric made
​​of cotton twill virtually.The fabric is used almost exclusively

military and civilian clothing is used. Its rugged, dense weave give it
a natural resistance, while it remains virtually silent, which makes
him among hunters and photographers very popular.But also its overall ruggedness makes it a extremely versatile outdoor fabric!

Microfiber fabric (100% nylon)The
microfiber fabric is a modern material for functional clothing. Due to
its high weave densityit is effectively the technological successor to
the classic "windproof" material, with far less weight. The fabric is
UV stable, easy to clean, light and very friendly to the skin. It can
be impregnated easily and retains its shape also at higher stress.

Soft shell fabric (100% nylon)This
three-layer fabric is mainly used for the new PCS Soft Shell to
application. It consists of an outer, water repellent and elastic
layer, a waterproof but breathable membrane and an inner layer of
fleece. The water column can be specified with 2000mm.

Used for: Soft Shell Outdoor Trousers

Not suitable for: Summer Weather

SilNylon Ripstop (100% nylon)The
SilNylon is a very lightweight ripstop fabric (50g/qm) of nylon, which
was coated with several layers of silicone. It is highly waterproof
(2000mm hydrostatic head) and has a very small pack size

Nomex fabricNomex
is a flame-retardant fabric that was specially developed for use in
aviation. Since it does not independently continue to burn, does not
drip or melt, it minimizes the risk of injury from fires.

Used for: gloves, PCS Combat Shirt

Especially suitable for: Autumn / Spring, tactical use

Not suitable for: protection from the cold

Cordura (100% nylon)Cordura is a nylon fabric made ​​by Invista, and is characterized by high abrasion resistance, tear strength and stability.
